"Tori Celeste is a contemporary surrealist artist from Durham, North Carolina. Though oil painting is her primary medium when she is not painting she dabbles in digital art and VJing. Her most recent work focuses on organic biomorphic shapes and creatures using the automatic drawing technique. She gains inspiration from her perception of the world and personal experiences. She ponders the complexity of raw expression and seeks to confront them, as I aim to use biomorphic creatures and forms to portray these concepts. Her work has been displayed at multiple local group art exhibits and art markets throughout the years including the Cameron Art Museum in Wilmington, NC, and Bedford Gallery in California."
